I figured as much. I wish there was a unlimited tethering with the unlimited LTE plan, but with rate limiting. Like limit me to .5-1Mbps on my non-phone devices. I'm not downloading music or videos, or streaming, I just want to browse text websites and code on my MacBook, nothing bandwidth intensive.

Ask HN: Is it possible to use unlimited LTE as your full-time Internet?

from the ask-hn dept.

I try to be as frugal as possible. With T-Mobile in the news, the thought came to me if I could cancel my $100/month Comcast, get the $70/month unlimited data T-Mobile plan, and use that as full-time Internet.Except the unlimited is only the phone and not hot-spot compatible. Or is there a way around that? (routing traffic or something)

There are a lot of people who do just that, when possible, me included. I always prefer products made in the U.S., but when it comes to tech your choices are reduced greatly. I'm okay with paying a little more if it's more ethical.
